Next step is to cut your fabric and secure it over the lid with a rubber band, then tie a decorative ribbon over the top.

I finished it up with this cute tiny spatula. {good luck finding one. . .I've had this one for years and couldn't find any more. . . if you know where I can get more, let me know!}

Option B is for you if you want to spend even less time!

I layered chocolate chips, walnuts {marshmallows optional} and then poured on half of a boxed brownie mix on top of that! Easy, and one box fills up two jars!! Woo Hoo!

Now decorate your jar!

And of course, don't forget to add a tax letting your recipient know what to add and how long to bake.

We just printed them on labels and stuck them to the back of a cute gift tag!

It took me longer to type this post than it did to make these two jars! :)

These gifts are especially great because your recipient can make them whenever. . . Maybe right away, or maybe in a month or two when they want a sweet treat! Also they store great so you can have an extra jar or two on hand just in case someone unexpectedly stops by your place with treats.
